Archive of Geosample Information from Scientific Ocean Drilling
Texas A and M University (TAMU), JOIDES Resolution Science Operator of the International
Ocean Discovery Program (IODP), is a partner in the Index to Marine and Lacustrine
Geological Samples (IMLGS) database, contributing information to the IMLGS to help
researchers discover geological samples curated in their facility. The IODP core repositories
archive and make available core material from the current IODP, and also from its
predecessor programs, the Deep Sea Drilling Project (DSDP), Ocean Drilling Program
(ODP), and Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP). Core material is available to
researchers through the IODP Curator. TAMU also contributed information to the IMLGS
describing cores from the former IODP and ODP in their role as Science Operator for
those programs. Information describing DSDP cores for the IMLGS was prepared by the
former DSDP data management group operated by the Scripps Institution of Oceanography
(SIO). TAMU periodically sends post-moratorium IODP core data, documents, and imagery
to NCEI for long-term archive. The latest IODP data, and full-resolution TIFF images
are available from the Data Librarian at TAMU. Full-resolution TIFF images in the
NCEI archive are offline only.

Data Presentation Form | Digital table - digital representation of facts or figures systematically displayed,
especially in columns Digital image Digital document - digital representation of a primarily textual item (can contain illustrations also) |
Dataset Progress Status | Ongoing - data is continually being updated Historical archive - data has been stored in an offline storage facility |
Data Update Frequency | Irregular - No data have been received for the new International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP) cores; Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP) Expeditions were completed in 2013. DSDP and ODP Legs are also complete. Data will continue to be added to the long-term archive as they come out of moratorium. |
Supplemental Information |
These data were prepared for archive at NGDC by the IODP staff at Texas A and M University
(TAMU), to fulfill the requirements of the US National Science Foundation's "Policy
for Oceanographic Data", NSF document 11-004.
|
Purpose | Marine geological and geophysical research. Research into the deep biosphere and the subseafloor ocean; Environmental change, processes and effects; and Solid earth cycles and geodynamics. |

Lineage Statement | Information about cores obtained by the Glomar Challenger during the Deep Sea Drilling Project (DSDP) was compiled by the DSDP Project Office at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography. Information pertaining to cores obtained by the JOIDES Resolution during the Ocean Drilling Program (ODP), Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP), and International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP) was compiled by Texas A and M University (TAMU), Science Operator for the ODP and IODP. Digital data origin varies by program. DSDP data were exported from the SIO Burroughs server. Some ODP data prior to Leg 129 were exported from the 1032 database management system at TAMU. ODP and IODP core data from JOIDES Resolution Expeditions 129 to 317 were exported from the JANUS database system at TAMU. Data for Expedition 317 and higher were processed through the LIMS system at TAMU. |
